Lying with Visualizations: Seeing Isn't Believing offers a compelling take on Data Visualization, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Infographics is excellent, I found the sections on Media Literacy less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Information Design that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Deceptive Charts more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Visualizations will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Deceptive Charts, if not the definitive work.
